Description:
In French with English subtitles. Benjamin Marquet’s documentary takes us to a very special boarding school near Paris, where 14-year-old boys and girls begin training for a future career in horseracing. The film focuses on Steve, Florian and Flavien during their first year of apprenticeship. For these young boys, the transition between their comfortable family environment and this new harsh world is brutal. They enter a world where the hard work of taking care of the horses exhausts them daily and where their first race atop a galloping thousand-pound animal looms everpresent and somewhat terrifying in their minds. “There’s something about the combination of unstable rider, nervous steed and swiftly traveling camera that generates awe here.” –John Anderson, Variety. “Here’s a different film. We found that spending time with these ambitious yet vulnerable kids as they forge ahead through physical difficulties and mental challenges was quite fascinating.” –Mike and Barbara Getz
